Beam Rebar Data
Element: Element number
Main Rebar: Standard size for main rebars
Stirrups: Standard size for stirrup bars
Arrangement: Number of shear reinforcing legs
Side Bar: Standard size for side bars
dT: Distance between the center of the top main rebars in the upper layer and the top surface of the section
